Solve : Cold Boot Attack Defeats Disk Encryption Software?

Answer»

Pretty amazing...

RESEARCHERS from three groups on Thursday published research showing that disk-based encryption schemes across multiple operating systems can be CIRCUMVENTED to reveal protected data.

In the paper, "Lest We Remember: Cold Boot Attacks on Encryption KEYS," the researchers from Princeton University, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and Wind RIVER Systems revealed that computer memory, contrary to popular belief, retains data for a brief period after a computer is turned off and that cooling memory chips can prolong the persistence of data in memory.
